Summary

[edit]
Description
Français : Pierre dite « d’achoppement » découverte par Ferdinand Cheval à Tersanne dans la Drôme en avril 1879. « Un matin de printemps, un incident insignifiant a conduit mon rêve à devenir réalité. J’ai glissé sur une pierre ronde qui m’a presque fait tomber la tête la première dans un petit ruisseau qui courait le long de la route. J'ai repoussé la pierre, mais ensuite j'ai remarqué sa curieuse forme ronde et je l’ai ramassée pour la regarder. » (J.B Brandreth, How I Built My Dream Palace by Cheval, The Wide World: The Magazine For Everybody, Volume 42, Nov 1918, p. 245.) Cette pierre est à l'origine de sa décision de construire le palais qu'il avait conçu sur des plans en papier une quinzaine d'années auparavant.
English: One day in the spring of 1879, Ferdinand Cheval tripped over an unusual-looking molasse rock during his postal route.
